/var/log/kern.log contains 4 denied messages in the last day

  • Non-Qubes Whonix.
  • Whonix Gateway and Whonix Workstation v. 13.
  • No App Armour rules set.

“/var/log/kern.log contains 4 denied messages in the last day”

it seems to be a problem with whonixcheck and perl? is it possible that it relates to DSA-3628-1 perl – security update ([SECURITY] [DSA 3628-1] perl security update)?

thanks for any advice
